The Blue Angels have cancelled all of their performances for the rest of the year, because of federal budget cuts. That includes the Oregon International Airshow. Herb Gillen says they have signed the Private Patriots Jet Team to take their place. The Patriots have performed at the Hillsboro Airshow in past years. They are more expensive than the Blue Angels, but Gillen says they don't expect that'll be a problem. He says that because they're a private group there are some maneuvers they perform that the Blue Angels can't. The Patriots have also been signed to perform at Seattle's Sea Fair where the Blue Angels perform annually.
